If we're honest, the most entertaining part of The Slow Mo Guys' latest video isn't even the 4K footage of a sword slicing through fruit – it's Dan's reaction to getting repeatedly clunked in the face by giant tomatoes.

"That would look amazing," says Gav at 3:43, after Dan's suggested he simply holds the blade in front of his face while Gav throws fruit at him. "But there's no way I'm not going to beam you in the head with it."

You can probably guess what happens exactly 45 seconds later.

(Oh, and you probably don't want to try this at home.)
